Tuckaway

The long-running legend of long for the Golden Age designs played by Chicago businessmen during holidays, Milwaukee came into its own along with Tuckaway Country Club and other members in the latter half of the 1960s. The layout, created by Dick Nugent and Ken Killian was a reflection of the current trends in the design of golf courses in the region, using huge water hazards and bunkers, and slender fairways that placed a high value on the accuracy of the golf course.

The course would continue to be the host of the Greater Milwaukee Open a few years after its debut and would challenge the best of Milwaukee according to. Since then, the course has strived to maintain its high-level of competition. Even with a small area, Jeffrey Brauer and other renovators have managed to expand the course up to over 7,200 yards. A birdie on the fourth hole, which has its green that resembles a boomerang, will be highly rewarded, as will most of the other pars you can make on the course.
